Chapter 178 Deep mountains and old forests, accompanied by wild wolves

Although it has entered summer, there is still a cold wind blowing in the mountain forest of Fengquanling from time to time. The leaves were blown loudly, and the sound of the insects made the surroundings look much quieter. Even if you look up, it is difficult to see which direction the moonlight comes from, let alone want to distinguish the stars in the sky. There are shadows everywhere in front of me, and I don't know what it is under my feet. Occasionally, if you encounter more than half of the decomposed beast corpses rolling up with deposited leaves, you will inevitably slide to the ground. If you are lucky, you will just fall. If you are unlucky, you may be scratched by branches and animal bones.

Zeng Yanliang held a long branch in his hand to explore the way, and walked forward with a deep and shallow foot. It doesn't seem to rain here recently, but it just makes Zeng Yanliang have no water to drink, but it doesn't make the road easier. Zeng Yanliang licked his already dry lips and leaned against a tree for a little rest. He can now feel his hands and feet trembling. I believe it won't be long before he even has the strength to walk. Zeng Yanliang thought over and over again what to do. What should he do if he is lost in this deep mountain forest alone?

Zeng Yanliang has lived in the mountains and forests near Yanyan County since he was a child, going up hunting in the mountains and playing in the mountains and fields, which is like a daily life for him. But he has also heard of many things that can never come out after entering the deep mountains, including his master Chang Hongkai.

Is Master the same as his current situation?

King Xiaohan and Xuanrong seem to think that the master is not dead, but if he really encounters such a situation and gets lost in the deep mountains, how can he still be alive?

Zeng Yanliang smiled bitterly, clenched the branch in his hand, and stood up hard to prepare to walk forward.

But at the moment he got up, Zeng Yanliang suddenly found two lights flashing in the shadow of the tree in the distance.

The cold wind still blows leaves and vegetation, and the sound of insects is still echoing in my ears. Zeng Yanliang couldn't distinguish any voice, and he even doubted whether he was dazzled. But the idea just flashed in Zeng Yanliang's mind. He immediately leaned back on the big tree behind him, put his body as close to the trunk as possible, and then clenched the branch in his hand.

He waited quietly and looked around.

For a long time, there was no movement. Zeng Yanliang has been breathing. He can't maintain this tight state for a long time, so gradually, sweat oozed from his forehead and his breathing became louder.

At this time, two lights flashed across Zeng Yanliang's left hand. This time, Zeng Yanliang heard the sound of slightly stepping on the leaves.

Something is approaching you!

Zeng Yan's conscience is not good. No matter what happened, I'm afraid it's difficult for him to resist his current situation.

A burst of despair arose. Zeng Yanliang frowned, moved slightly, and looked up. The tree behind him is very thick, and I'm afraid that three people can't hold it, and the lowest branch from the ground is about the height of a house.

If it is usual, Zeng Yanliang can probably go up easily, but now this height is very difficult for him.

At this time, there is a bright light flashing in the distance. Zeng Yanliang looked at it carefully. This time, he found that the shining blue light was actually the eyes of the wolf.

Originally, it only flashed occasionally. By the time Zeng Yanliang could distinguish them clearly, more than a dozen pairs of eyes were staring at him around Zeng Yanliang.

The hungry wolves in the mountains often come out to look for food at night, and they always appear in groups. If the mountain beasts are targeted by them, they can hardly escape.

Zeng Yanliang knows this best. In any case, he didn't expect that he would be surrounded by a group of wild wolves one day. Even if you are in good shape, there is nothing you can do to deal with such a group of wolves, let alone now...

There are about a dozen wild wolves hiding in the distance, and they wait quietly, as if they are determining something. Their eyes kept flashing in the night, and their eyes were full of pure greed.

It is the first time that Zeng Yanliang has been stared at as food. In this forest, secular disputes seem to have nothing to do with him. He is only the food of the wild wolves now. Those wild wolves seem to have only given him two choices, to be eaten obediently, or by them after resisting. Their eyes are so firm that there is no doubt or wavering. Whether the food in front of them will resist or not, he is their food.

Zeng Yanliang looked up at the tree branch above his head. He knew that the wolf could not climb the tree. If he could jump on the tree branch, he might still have a glimmer of life. But there is only one chance of success or failure.

He did not dare to act rashly and moved his feet little by little to find a suitable place to jump on the tree. At the same time, he stared at the wolves in the distance for fear that the wild wolves would rush over when he was not ready.

These wild wolves looked at Zeng Yanliang from afar and did not mean to rush over. Perhaps because in summer, the food of the wolves in the mountain forest is relatively sufficient, or because the wolves have not seen anyone, they dare not act rashly after seeing Zeng Yanliang. Zeng Yanliang held the branch and stood there against the big tree, much bigger than the body of the wolf. Zeng Yanliang knew that they must not bend over when facing wild wolves. As long as they saw that they were smaller than themselves, they would rush up and bite without hesitation.

The two sides were deadlocked. Zeng Yanliang found a place to step on his feet and calculated the direction of jumping up, while the wild wolves patiently observed Zeng Yanliang from afar. They are silent, but they exude an extremely murderous atmosphere.

I don't know how long it took, Zeng Yanliang's body suddenly shook. He couldn't stand any longer. At this time, Zeng Yanliang felt that if he continued to consume like this, in case he fell down before dawn, he would still become the food of the wolf. Looking up at the sky covered by layers of leaves, it doesn't seem to mean anything bright.

What should I do?

Do you want to continue to confront the wolf like this, or jump to the tree with the last trace of strength?

This is a life and death choice, and even Zeng Yanliang can't make a decision quickly.

At this moment, the wild wolves seemed to notice Zeng Yanliang's shaking just now, and several of them suddenly stood up and came towards Zeng Yanliang. They got a little closer to Zeng Yanliang, and then waited for a while. After seeing that the other party did not move, they did the same and tried to approach forward little by little.

Zeng Yanliang had to make a decision. Once these wild wolves start such an action, it means that they have noticed that Zeng Yanliang is in a weak position, so that they will soon rush up, and if they rush over, everything will be late.

Zeng Yanliang finally made up his mind. He suddenly took a step forward, and this sudden move scared the wild wolves who had just come back. Zeng Yanliang didn't care about them. He looked up at the thick branch, took a deep breath, threw the branch in his hand, shook his hands and feet. After being fully prepared, he suddenly collapsed his waist, and jumped up with all his strength.

This leap exhausted all Zeng Yanliang's strength. He did not jump to the expected height, but just as he was about to fall, he stretched out his hands and grabbed the dry bark.

The dry and cracked traces left on this big tree saved Zeng Yanliang's life. He didn't dare to calm down. After scratching the bark, he kicked the soles of his feet again, and then he rose up again. The next moment, he hugged the thick branch.

After climbing to the branch, Zeng Yanliang lay there and gasped and looked down. The wolves seemed to be shocked by his behavior just now. Those flashing eyes still fell on Zeng Yanliang, and they all looked up at him.

Condescending, Zeng Yanliang finally burst into a smile recently.

He doesn't want to move anymore. Lying on this tree branch is a rare rest for him in three days. Although there was still no water, no food, and a group of hungry wolves under his feet, Zeng Yanliang inexplicably felt a little at ease at this time.

If you want to die, it's better to die on this tree and leave at least a whole body. Zeng Yanliang thought so, and his hoarse voice made a laugh.

The wolves waited for a while and gradually approached the big tree. They stubbornly refused to leave, as if they were still greedy for this strange food.

Zeng Yanliang lay there and confronted the wild wolves again. However, at this time, Zeng Yanliang's sense of crisis suddenly declined and was replaced by endless fatigue. He wanted to sleep with his eyes closed, but he knew that he could never sleep, so that he could only pretend to talk to the wolves to stay awake.

At first, Zeng Yanliang just thought about something silently in his heart and pretended to be talking to the wild wolves, but gradually it was difficult to resist sleepiness. He could only open his mouth and make a sound from time to time.

"Where are you from?"

The wolves tilted their heads one by one as if they heard some strange sound.

"How can I get out of here?"

Some wolves seemed to feel threatened and roared.

Zeng Yanliang cheered up and said with a smile, "I'm afraid you will go back hungry tonight. Just in time, I'm also hungry..."

The roaring wild wolf seemed to drive all the wild wolves around. They began to roar at the big tree, and some tried to rush to the tree. But these are all in vain, just adding some sounds to the silent mountains and forests.

The louder their roar, the more energetic Zeng Yanliang will be. He lay there and looked down at the hard-working wolves below, and suddenly felt much better.
